Description Tim Harder gentoo-dev 2010-06-04 17:41:43 UTC
The old homepage redirects to http://bitbucket.org/rivanvx/beamer/wiki/Home.
Comment 1 Sebastian Pipping gentoo-dev 2010-06-07 23:33:48 UTC
It seems
- the maintainer changed
- there's a tag and auto-tarball (a release?) for 3.08 already

http://bitbucket.org/rivanvx/beamer/get/version-3-08.tar.bz2
Comment 2 Alexis Ballier gentoo-dev 2010-06-12 10:33:48 UTC
homepage updated, thanks

i'd prefer to see it officially on ctan and/or with a link on the webpage before bumping to 3.08

Okay.  Turning this bug into a bump request for later to have your reasoning at the right place.  I hope that's in your interest, too.
Comment 4 Tim Harder gentoo-dev 2010-07-02 09:18:41 UTC
It seems like 3.09 was released a few weeks ago as well and the latest zip archive available on CTAN is 3.09. 

However, the upstream site still only has tagged archive checkouts which work but the archive and directory names aren't the standard defaults which is a little annoying. 

I filed an upstream issue [1] asking for versioned release archives with standard name formatting.

3.10 has now been released and the upstream maintainer has started to add release tarballs in the uploaded files section as I requested.

Fixed this already with a different bug. :)
